Baking Tips
Use rotisserie chicken for a faster prep time.
For extra creaminess, add a layer of ricotta mixed with an egg.
Bake uncovered for a few extra minutes to make the topping extra crispy.
Substitute Swiss cheese with Gruyère for a deeper flavor.
Make ahead and refrigerate overnight for better flavor absorption.
